Not sure what to say?

I was saddened to hear of the passing of my "go-to person" at Yale Law School. Jay always made time to speak to me about any problems my son was having in prison and was never judgmental. I'm grateful that I had time to speak with him prior to his passing. He was a great guy!

Dear Sue and family, My sincere sympathy for your loss. Although I didn´t have the honor of meeting him its clear he was a remarkable man. May his memory always be a blessing to you and all who knew him.
